I think I've been complaining about this for the upteen time, and yes after so many times I know what I have to do, but it never fails to want to do things on my own. Sometimes I really wish God would just give me what I want so much, but it just doesn't work that way does it. I think He is gonna continue doing this until I have learnt my lesson.
Chrishan Jeyaratnam spoke during service on Friday, and he talked about going into new seasons of life. One thing that caught my attention was this thing that he said, which he quoted from Rob Ferguson, "if you project yourself ahead into a future that hasn't happened, you are outside the grace of God". I've always been doing that. It's not easy not to think of it though.
Why does it always happen to me? Ever since young, its always like that, every single time. SIGH! It sometimes can be very deceiving, either that or I'm just blind, but it's time to trust God entirely. Easy to say, difficult to do.

I think God is really funny, yet so cool. I can't help but smile at what He has done.
I've always wanted to lead worship when I was in secondary school. I think it was some kind of God-given passion at that time, and I would really want to thrive at any opportunity. Sadly, there was once when my class was given the opportunity to lead during chapel. I gave up that chance just because I have stage fright. It was real stupid everytime I look back. As the years gone by, my passion for it slowly disappeared. And it is at this point in time that God has given me another opportunity. Can I say no this time again? Of course not! God is really wonderful. =)

Didn't know why I didn't read that book when I had the chance during secondary school. It may have more impact on me then rather than now. But still it really got me thinking of my own walk with God, and how much I'll do to glorify His name. This is the 1st major book that I've read ever since Da Vinci's Code. Ha! But I know different books have different implications. Rachel's Tears hit me quite abit. Her attitude towards people who are considered "outcasts" is incredible. She's like Jesus! How many of us can actually say, "yes I've done something Jesus would have done today." Its time for us to be a shining light for God.
On another note, the hectic schedule of normal uni life has started to kick in. Its going to be study study study all the way. That's crazy. The amount of assignments are the ones that is going to kill me.
I pray to You, God of Peace.
I rest in You, my cares released.

He made all these. How can I still not be in awe and love Him? A daily nudge from God to ask me to talk to Him, and yet I ignore every single time. When will I learn?

Another long day out. It's so cool not to have uni on 2 consecutive days. That way I can sleep as much as I want. Went out shopping with Suhan again. Today we went to Koorong! =) I bought 2 books today. I know that I'm the kind that don't read books at all. But I do like to read christian books. Got Facing Your Giants by Max Lucado, and Becoming a Prayer Warrior by Elizabeth Alves. I got the prayer one because I know I have not been talking to God alot lately. Wanna change that. And I think one of my church friends recommended me this book before.
Reading through text readings for my practical tomorrow. I am going to faint already. A longggg day tomorrow. But OCF resumes. Yayness.
